SWR instead of VFO A Frequency

Gary Smith-2
I just changed the configuration to power
per band and now when I transmit it shows
the numerical value of the SWR instead of
the VFO A frequency. I must have
accidentally engaged a command while
bumping something, looking for PWR SET.

Say the frequency showing on VFO-A is
10.110000 If I use the auto-tuner &
transmit it shows 1.0-1 instead of the
frequency. If I bypass the auto-tuner &
transmits it shows 2.2-1

I searched SWR in the search field in the
PDF manual but didn't find the answer.
What did I accidentally engage?

Thanks & 73,

Gary

The VFO A display shows the SWR in tune mode.  See page 6.

Gary,

How are you initiating transmit?
That is normal if you are using TUNE.
If you are tapping XMIT or closing the Key or closing PTT, the frequency
should be displayed.

Bob & Don,

Thanks for the clarification. Apparently
I've always looked at the LP-100A when
tuning as I didn't recall that behavior
and it struck me. I'll have to re-read the
manual, I didn't find SWR mentioned on
page 6 but I've missed things before.

Thank you for the help! 73,

Gary
